About Earnin

Earnin’s mission is to build a financial system that works for people. Every year, while Americans wait for their paychecks, more than $1 trillion of their hard-earned money is held up in the pay cycle. As a result, they  accumulate over $50 billion in late and overdraft fees and turn to high-interest loans. They seek to eliminate those fees and put money back into workers’ hands. Earnin is an app that lets people get paid as soon as they leave work, with no fees, interest, or hidden costs. App users can receive their money in their bank account instantly at little or no cost. All they need is a bank account and a job that provides direct deposit or uses electronic timesheets. At Earnin, they’re building the way we think a financial system should work for everyone, not just the people who can afford it. They help people take control of their money and get to a better financial place. Their goal is not only to provide great products at little or no cost to the people who need them but also to inspire kindness across the financial world and eventually across all industries.
